• W2243232139 abstract "Antarctica is a continent of extremes; the low availability of liquid water and nutrients, extreme low temperatures and seasonally variable levels of solar radiation exert high selective pressures on organisms. Consequently, most life forms in the scarce ice-free regions which represent less than 1% of the surface area of the continent are microbial. Despite this, terrestrial microbial communities are poorly studied and the existing data are geographically focused on McMurdo dry valleys and volcanically active regions. Nunataks, mountain tops protruding through the ice sheets, occur along much of the East Antarctic coast and in the Transantarctic Mountains. Among them, several remained ice-free during Neogene and Pleistocene ice ages and thus may have acted as important refugia for terrestrial life.Here we present the results of a broad-scale survey of microbial biodiversity of ice-free regions in the western Sor Rondane Mountains (Dronning Maud Land (DML), East Antarctica). A total of 66 samples from eight different ice-free regions were selected to represent gradients in bedrock type (gneiss or granite), the macrobiotic content (presence or absence of moss, lichen and/or arthropods) and geographic location. All samples were subjected to both genetic fingerprinting (ARISA) and second generation sequencing (Illumina MiSeq 300PE) targeting the V1-V3 variable regions of the 16S rRNA gene. Mock communities were included to benchmark the bioinformatics pipeline. Reads were processed using Usearch (Edgar 2010), clustered based on a 97 % similarity cutoff using Uparse (Edgar 2013) and identified using the GreenGenes training set. The specific conductivity, pH, water content, and total (TC), total organic (TOC) and inorganic (IC) carbon content were determined and used as explanatory variables in direct ordination analyses of both the ARISA and the Illumina data.The Illumina sequencing resulted in ~600.000 high quality sequences divided over ~3980 OTUs in 28 phyla and 219 genera. No significant differences in richness equaling the number of OTUs after standardization for the number of sequences per samples were observed between high, medium and low TOC content classes for the sequencing data. Redundancy Analysis revealed that bedrock type (granite or gneiss), water content, specific conductance, pH and TOC significantly shaped the bacterial community composition. The ARISA dataset, despite having a lower taxonomic resolution, showed very similar patterns and relationships with environmental data, among which bedrock type remained the most important parameter in explaining differences in community structure between the samples.As the gneiss is supposedly of granite origin, differences in community structure may be related to physical differences between both bedrock types and their weathering products. Preliminary cosmogenic analysis of Pb isotopes of gravel samples indeed suggest a predominantly local origin of the material, yet mixtures with exotic material cannot be excluded in samples from gneiss outcrops. We conclude that microbial community composition is primarily driven by mineralogical characteristics of weathering products in these poorly developed soils, while biotic influences are of secondary importance." @default.
